Modern scales
#5
Thanks Greg. I was speaking to a friend who works for CN who used to pick up ore cars from a lead mine. He said that the front end loader that loaded the cars had a scale in or attached to the bucket so the operator knew exactly how much ore was in each car. He assumed that the info was sent to both the mine and CN.
